COURSE AMENITIES: Water, replacement drinks, and assorted fruits are available throughout the course.

TECH T-SHIRTS:All registrants will receive a free tech t-shirt.

SOCKS:All full marathon runners receive a pair of Running Chicken Track Club socks.

PRE-RACE and POST-RACE FOOD!! All of our runners have an eating problem because our chefs will meet you at packet pick-up and will follow you to the finish line. Expect piles of jambalaya, gumbo, pizza, salad, and all things Louisiana yum. If the chef is feeling frisky, expect alligator sauce piquant!

Buses will run between 5:15 - 6:15 a.m. from both locations in the morning, and will resume again between 8:15ish - 1:00 p.m. in the afternoon.

Parking at the Baton Rouge Beach is extremely limited, and we request that participants refrain from parking in the yards of residents next to or near the course route. We encourage taking advantage of our park and shuttle services.

For those who do not prefer the shuttle, they can park at the Trinity Episcopal Church (Stanford and Morning Glory ) or the LSU campus and walk to the starting line. | View Map
